Common Health Issues for Travelers to India

today
every one wish to see India because of his variety of culture and
spiritual aspect .travelers always face some kind of health problem As
India is a developing nation, visitors need to

take special precautions against illnesses not normally encountered at
home. A trip to a doctor or travel clinic is recommended well in

advance of your departure date to ensure that you receive all the
necessary immunizations and medications.
In particular, the following common health issues should be addressed.

This very common travel ailment is encountered by many travelers and usually results from the consumption of contaminated food and water.
Some people also find that their stomachs and intestines don't
appreciate the change in diet or spicy food. It's a good idea to always
carry Oral Rehydration Salts, as well as anti-diarrhea medicine (such as
Immodium) in case you have to travel and won't have access to a toilet.

Preventative measures: Only drink bottled water. Avoid
buffets and only eat freshly cooked food that’s served hot. Be careful
of eating washed salads, fresh fruit juice (which may be mixed with
water), and ice. Meat eaters should avoid food from cheap restaurants
and railway station vendors.

2. Malaria and Dengue Fever

Both of these
diseases are transmitted by mosquitoes and are most problematic in areas
where there is stagnant water for mosquitoes to breed, particularly
during and just after the monsoon season.
They can produce some very nasty flu-like symptoms and fever. The
mosquitoes that transmit the diseases are different types — malaria carrying ones usually bite at night, while the dengue fever carrying "tiger striped" mosquitoes bite during the day.

Preventative measures:
As malaria is a bacterial disease, it can be prevented by taking
anti-malarial drugs. Dengue Fever, being a virus, is best avoided by
taking precautions against mosquito bites, such as wearing a strong
repellent containing DEET, as there is no vaccine currently available.

so lets understand it a bit and few reamdy which you shud keep at home and while travelling

.

Homeopathy is based on the principle of "like cures like". The remedies,
which are generally dilutions of natural substances from plants,
minerals, and animals, are selected to specifically match a person's
individual symptom pattern. Here are some homeopathic remedies that are
useful
for traveling It is our responsibility to help ourselves i had found

help to themselves before going to see doctor

NUX VOMICA– Remedy for overindulgence in food and drink that brings on nausea headache and chilliness.

ALONG WITH THIS I HAD ALSO MADE LIST OF FEW EMERGENCY MEDICINE
The thing about emergencies is that you never know when one will arise.
So it is best to always be prepared, especially in this ever
changing world we live in. Having only a little homeopathic knowlege and
some basic remedies can make a huge difference in self care and the
care of others. In most emergencies the very first thing to do is ask
for help. This means offering a silent prayer for help from
divine sources as well as calling for help from ambulance, fire or
police.

HOMEOPATHY EMERGENCY MEDIICNE

Aconite 200C- For any emergency where there is a shock or sudden
event. This could be from a car accident to getting bad news to falling
down. Always remember Aconite

Arnica 200c - The first remedy to think of in trauma of any sort but
especially contussions and injuries from sprains and strains.

Arsenicum Album 30C - For acute food poisoning and most influenza.

Apis Mellifica 200C – For acute allergic reactions or anaphylactic shock. Insect bites and swellings that are hot and red.

Belladonna 200C - Great for head injuries, sunstroke, fever.

Bryonia 30C- Influenza. Appendicitis. Does not want to move. Thirsty

Cactus Gradifloris 200C - Heart attack with the heart having a squeezed sensation.

This is a partial list only. Look up each of these remedies and
create your own small Materia Medica for each. Type this in a word
document and shrink to fit one page. Then fold this to fit your box of
remedies and use this as a quick guide to help you. The potencies were
selected for the intensity of conditions that may warrant the use of the
remedy. The 30C being acute and the 200C being a slightly stronger
expression. I have found these potencies to be the most useful in any
acute or emergency situation.
Study these remedies often and commit them to heart. Then in any
emergency you will have the knowledge and the remedy to use in an
instant. And remember to always ask for help.
